Air Freight Growth at MFR the Highest in Over a Decade!
The Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport (MFR) does more than fly people from place to place; MFR is a prime location for transporting cargo as well. Airport Director Jerry Brienza stated, “MFR’s location proximate to the interstate and rail lines makes it an ideal hub for our shipping partners. Additionally, Medford is the largest city centrally located between Sacramento, CA and Portland, OR, and MFR’s air freight operations serve all of Southern Oregon, Northern California, and the respective West Coastlines.” In 2021, air cargo at MFR totaled more than 9,303,300 tons. MFR hasn’t seen a number like this since 2000 when the year closed out with 9,492,401 tons.
